The Dream/Aktion Unit were originally birthed as a side-project to allow Thurston Moore and Jim O’Rourke to fully explore the kind of ecstatic power blues that their work in Sonic Youth repeatedly implied. The addition of legendary New England saxophonist Paul Flaherty and powerhouse drummer Chris Corsano provided them with an umbilical connection straight to the source of modern musical freedom, while working to liberate them from previously articulated modes of known rock-speak. As a quartet, the group tore through a bunch of the USA’s most winning festival spaces - their ground-levelling F/X pedal assault at the De Stijl/Freedom FromParticular mention must be made of the classic horror artwork, courtesy of Karen Constance (Blood Stereo). An Edgar Allan Poe short story come to life, the images and the gore-filled track titles (my particular favourite being “Here Come the Fucking Dead”) compliment the unearthly sonics contained on disc. “Blood Shadow Rampage” is a prime example of what the commercial music industry is lacking: exquisite packaging, originality, and good fucking music! 9/10 bash in Minneapolis in 2003 being a particular landmark - with both guitarists drawing creative sustenance from the kind of ego-obliterating drums/horn interaction previously articulated by players like The Reverend Frank Wright, Glenn Spearman, Denis Charles and Albert Ayler..." volcanic tongue

~ first piece of big news is that weâ€™ll be launching a new in-house label in just a couple months. gonna be the â€˜RED RECORDSâ€™ division of time-lag, and will in essence replace our cdr editions. all those cdrs have been a lot of fun, but its time for more vinyl! so now on top of all the proper time-lag releases, there will be a new series of lps in the work. will be a combination of vinyl versions of out of print time-lag cdrs, as well as new releases. all pressed on 180gm clear red vinyl in editions of only 100-300 copies. youâ€™ll only be able to buy these releases direct from me, or through a handful of independent shops. no commercial distribution. really excited about all the stuff weâ€™ve got lined up already, but for now iâ€™m just going to say this much : the first red records release will be out real soon, and is an amazing new album from JOSHUA BURKETT. very psyched... stay tuned...
